is a philanthropic grantmaking and impact investment foundation supporting education, health and wellness, equal opportunity and beneficial social change.

By leveraging the resources of Clearlake Capital Group, Clearlake Impact Initiative supports a variety of local nonprofit organizations around the world through financial support and community service.

A pillar of the Clearlake Impact Initiative is to empower individuals who live in economically and/or socially challenging circumstances by supporting opportunities to improve education and create equal opportunities. Through this initiative, Clearlake helps celebrate diversity, promotes inclusivity, and works to create a level playing field for all.

We believe that by pairing beliefs with actions, we will inspire others to invest in making their community successful. Our passion for giving back fuels our drive to continually look for ways to do more and a make meaningful impact on society.

Investment

Novata

Clearlake serves as a GP advisor to Novata, a public benefit corporation and technology platform that provides the private markets with intuitive and effective ESG measurement, data collection, benchmarking and reporting. Clearlake is also an inaugural investor, with all proceeds from the investment to be donated to nonprofits.

Launched in October 2021, Novata offers a vetted ESG reporting framework built around critical metrics that consistently appear across leading ESG methodologies and a secure technology platform that provides a clearer view of ESG impact. Novata is pioneering a unified approach to ESG, offering a flexible ESG framework, a secure contributory data repository and benchmarking tools for analysis and reporting. Novata and Clearlake believe that simplifying the fragmented and opaque ESG diligence process will empower the private markets in achieving a more sustainable and inclusive form of capitalism.
